Overview
- Frankie Montas has posted a 12.05 ERA and 2.14 WHIP in six rehab appearances with Triple-A Syracuse.
- In his sixth outing on June 18, Montas allowed five earned runs on seven hits with one walk and two strikeouts over five innings.
- The Mets face a Sunday deadline to either activate Montas in the major league rotation, shift him to the bullpen, or restart his rehab assignment.
- Kodai Senga’s hamstring strain and Tylor Megill’s elbow issue have left New York searching for a dependable fifth starter.
- If Montas remains sidelined, the club could call on spot starters such as Justin Hagenman or Blade Tidwell from the 40-man roster.
